Instead of -lsmpeg, specify the library directly
(/usr/local/lib/libsmpeg.so) so that it resolves against the right one at
link time, and then do this when running the program:

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libsmpeg.so
./my_program_to_run command_line_arguments whatever blahblahblah

That will force the dynamic linker to favor your version of smpeg.

Alternately, get rid of the original version...uninstall the smpeg package
or just erase the original library file so that the linker will find
your's instead (but make sure /usr/local/lib is in your /etc/ld.so.conf
file and you've run ldconfig since then)...isn't Linux FUN?!  :)
